"What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
Seeing Qin Wan staring at the scars on Ta Bahong's body, Tuoba Wu couldn't help asking a question softly, Qin Wan said softly, "Did you give your elder brother medicine these few days?"
Tuoba Wu said of course, "No, of course not, I didn't dare to take medicine casually."
Qin Wan nodded, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, "Something's wrong."
Tuoba Wu didn't know what happened, why did something wrong after taking the medicine
"What's wrong? My elder brother..."
"The scars on your elder brother's back should be lighter, because after several days, except for the festering wounds, other places have begun to heal themselves, even the bruises have faded a lot, but in comparison, you The wound on the side of the elder brother’s waist is darker, which is unreasonable, since the wound is exposed, it should heal faster on its own.”
Tuoba Wu frowned, "Maybe it's because the injuries outside are serious?"
Qin Wan thought for a while, but didn't answer for a while. What Tuoba Wu said was possible. Unfortunately, she couldn't check the injury on his back immediately after sending Tuobahong back, and couldn't compare it immediately.
Qin Wan sighed, leaned over to break Tuo Bahong's eyelids, checked his pulse again, and said suspiciously, "It stands to reason that he should wake up, if he still doesn't wake up, something will go wrong."
In just a few days, Tuo Bahong has already lost a lot of weight. He does not eat or drink every day and can only be fed with soup and medicine. If he keeps awake, he will not last long. I just want my eldest brother to wake up, and I don’t even have the thought of catching the murderer. If my eldest brother can wake up, then the murderer just doesn’t need to be caught.”
Qin Wan shook his head, "The murderer will definitely be caught, don't worry."
Tuoba Wu snorted softly, "I know that Prince Yan issued a military order in front of the Emperor of Zhou, saying that the murderer who injured Fu Desheng would be caught within three days, so it is really pitiful for Liu Yun to lose the great general, but we I didn't force you!"
Qin Wan couldn't agree with what he heard from the bottom of his heart. If something happened to Tuoba Hong's temper, he might be more powerful than a hundred Liu Yuns. I can understand my state of mind, it has been a day and a half now, and the murderer must be caught before the morning of the day after tomorrow."
Tuoba Wu listened and said, "Is it possible? Are there any clues now?"
Qin Wan shook her head and didn't answer, because she was emotional and reasonable, she couldn't just tell Tuoba Wu what she knew.
After staying in the big tent for a while, Qin Wan asked Xu Chang when he left the tent, "Deputy Captain Xu, how often do your guards change shifts?"
Xu Chang hurriedly said, "Usually it changes every three hours, but sometimes it's not necessarily."
Qin Wan nodded, seemingly thoughtful, and Xu Chang asked, "Why does Miss Nine ask this?"
Qin Wan thought for a moment and said, "It's nothing, Deputy Captain Xu has worked hard, so don't let other people in."
Xu Chang hurriedly agreed, and Qin Wan then headed towards the Queen Mother's big tent.
Back in the queen mother's tent, the queen mother hurriedly pulled Qin Wan and said, "Jiu girl, come here quickly, you have been too busy these two days, and I haven't had a chance to listen to you in detail about what happened before. You haven't told me yet, your autopsy technique is from Where did it come from?"
Qin Wan smiled and said, "When I was young, I first learned medical skills from my parents, and then I read some miscellaneous books. Once I read a book, I thought it was medical skills, but I didn't expect to talk about it later. The technique, the book was full of nonsense, but it gave me some inspiration, and then I paid more attention to it. In addition, I like to read some books of strange tales handed down from the previous dynasty. Slowly, I also like to learn Watching those Qingtian masters deduce and solve the case..."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "No, the Empress just brought your Eighth Sister to pay her respects. Your Eighth Sister said that your father and mother liked to study medical science very much in the early years, and that's how they taught you. You are very talented and have no special skills. I have learned the teachings of my master, and not only that, but I have also achieved a great success in the art of martial arts by following the medical principles, so tell me, how did you resolve the case of the Taichang princess's family in Jinzhou?"
Qin Wan was in Jinzhou, and actually helped Huo Huaixin to resolve two cases. Because one case was related to Song Guogong's Mansion and Anyang Marquis Mansion, the Emperor didn't mention it that day, but the Queen Mother still knew about it.
Qin Wan then sat down, omitting many frightening details, and only told the words to his ears, but just like that, the Queen Mother was terrified, "Oh my God, I thought I was quite courageous when I was young, but I didn't expect you to be so courageous, how dare you? Jiu girl, I'm really ashamed of your heart!"
Qin Wan said casually, "Actually, it's nothing if I figure it out. Besides, I'm sitting upright, and I will never be afraid even if there is anything." Qin Wan said with a smile, "Actually, I don't care about these things. It’s just that other people care more about it.”
The queen mother knew that Qin Wan was talking about other people's comments, so the queen mother snorted softly, "Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters, let alone gossip. This time the case is cleared up, I will definitely ask the emperor to reward you! How about it?"
Qin Wan's face lit up with a smile, "Of course that's good—"
In front of Yan Huai, in front of Liu Yun and others, Yan Chi issued a military order to solve the case within three days, and the matter quickly spread among the camp, making Zhou's heart tense, and the Northern Wei Dynasty He and Xiliang are waiting. The case of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the case of Xiliang may be separate, or they may not be related. Liu Yun did this. If Yan Chi did not solve the case, the Northern Wei Dynasty would not have been waiting. , and if Yan Chi solves the case, the Northern Wei Dynasty has even more reason to exert pressure.
Seeing that it was already night, Yan Chi did not investigate further. He only arranged for people to keep an eye on the two tall and thin warriors of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The tent did not go out at all, and the people outside were also guarding unwaveringly. However, this scene fell into Xu Chang's eyes.
These two tall and thin men, one named Wei Chan and the other named Xiao Yu, were both elite warriors of the Northern Wei Dynasty selected this time. Like Xu Chang, they were both on duty in the Imperial Army of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He is the deputy head of the imperial army, the main head was left in the Northern Wei Dynasty to guard the imperial city, and he was chosen to command the guards around Tuo Bahong and the three of them. There were thirty people, and Xu Chang was very familiar with each of these people, and Wei Chan and Xiao Yu were also selected to follow Tuoba Hong up the mountain on the day of the hunt—
When Tuoba Wu selected bodyguards to guard the big tent, he naturally chose those whom Tuobahong himself trusted on weekdays. Xu Chang was one of them. Most of the other bodyguards were the bodyguards who went up the mountain that day. Every time I can see someone guarding the intersection not far away. Before that, there was no patrol post there. At first Xu Chang didn't know why, until he saw these guards secretly following Wei Chan who left the big tent. Only then did he understand.
Thinking about the joints again, Xu Chang understood.
Qin Wan asked her about going to the pharmacy, but he replied that he had heard from his brothers that Wei Chan and Xiao Yu were in charge of the guards at that time, so he suspected that he knew when the drug boy would leave the pharmacy. people.
Xu Chang thought about it, and when it got dark, he couldn't help but leave Wei Chan and Xiao Yu in the big tent.
Wei Chan and Xiao Yu didn't know why, and Wei Chan asked, "Brother Xu, what happened?"
There were only two of them in the tent, and Xu Chang obviously had something important to say.
Xu Chang stared at Wei Chan and Xiao Yu coldly, and said after a while, "You two also went up the mountain that day, what happened to His Royal Highness has something to do with you? Does what happened to General Fu in Xiliang have anything to do with you?" ?”
Wei Chan and Xiao Yu were stunned, and Xiao Yu said, "Brother Xu, what are you talking about?! Don't you know who we are? We were the Imperial Guards guarding the Eastern Palace in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and we have been friends with His Royal Highness for a long time. How could we Harm His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? And that General Fu, we have no grievances against him, why did we kill him?"
Wei Chan also said, "That's right, why did you suddenly say that about us?"
Xu Chang squinted his eyes and smiled coldly, "You two are strong and strong. After following His Highness the Crown Prince for a long time, His Highness the Crown Prince trusts you to be harmed by you. Do you think I suspect you?! Not me! It's His Royal Highness the Prince of Dazhou. ! Don't you two know that you have been monitored?!"
Wei Chan and Xiao Yu were taken aback for a moment, and they looked blankly at the door of the big tent. Xu Chang continued, "At the intersection ahead, those people are not newly added sentry posts, they are here to monitor you! Every move of you two Is it all in the eyes of others?!"
As he said, Xu Chang glanced at the two of them, "I also know the character of the two of you, but it is not ruled out that some people pretended to be very good, but you can talk about how you walked on the mountain that day, or Did you see anything?"
Wei Chan was a little trembling at Xu Chang's words, and hurriedly explained, "We told you earlier, Brother Xu, Deputy Captain Xu, you trust us, we dispersed as ordered, and kept moving forward. We didn’t go to the signal until His Highness the Fifth Highness sent a signal, and we didn’t turn back in the middle, we were not going in the same direction as His Highness the Crown Prince, how could we harm His Highness the Crown Prince?”
Xu Chang's eyes were extremely serious, "Then why do people from Dazhou suspect you two?"
Wei Chan and Xiao Yu looked like they were about to cry, and Xiao Yu walked out of the tent to take a look in disbelief. Soon, he returned and met Wei Chan's questioning gaze, Xiao Yu nodded with a crying face, "It's really staring at us, I didn't notice it during the day!" After speaking, Xiao Yu looked at Xu Chang again, "What's going on?! How could you suspect us?!"
Xu Chang looked at Wei Chan and Xiao Yu with doubts in his eyes, and continued after hearing the words, "This time, the young commander of the Shuoxi Army is the one who is investigating the case. You should know what they know and what I know. I don’t know, so I can’t trust you now, I just want to ask you first, after all, we are people from one country, if you did it, tell me now, I’m going to find the princess and His Royal Highness, but it’s only in the hands of Zhou people Yes, maybe there's still life left."
Wei Chan and Xiao Yu looked helpless, and Wei Chan straightened his chest, "Why do you think we did it?! We have a clear conscience! We can confront each other now! Deputy Captain Xu, you go with us!"
Wei Chan turned around and walked out, but Xu Chang yelled softly, "Stop!"
Wei Chan paused, turned around and said with a bitter face, "I can really stand up! I really can't figure out how to suspect us! Whether it is His Royal Highness or the general, we have no reason!"
Xu Chang narrowed his eyes as if he was thinking about it, and after a while he frowned, as if he had thought of something bad.
Wei Chan stepped forward, "Deputy Captain Xu, what's wrong? What did you think of?"
Xu Chang frowned and said, "I think it's very strange, and I also think that there is no possibility of the two of you being suspected, but Yan Shizi arranged it like this. He and the third prince of Xiliang made a military order, and there is still a day to go." …”
Xiao Yu reacted quickly and said, "If the murderer is not caught by then, the Third Prince of Xiliang will be held accountable. Therefore, with Prince Yan being so ruthless, in order to solve this predicament, he must catch the murderer!"
Wei Chan's face turned pale, "So... we need to find someone to be a scapegoat to block the anger of the third prince of Xiliang?!" The more Wei Chan said, the more he felt that it was possible, and he hurriedly said, "What can we do? The Western Army can make the enemy fearful, he is not just cruel, not to mention that we are from the Northern Wei Dynasty, he will not care about our lives... "
Cold sweat broke out on Xiao Yu's forehead, "I heard that Prince Yan's methods of interrogating people are even unbearable to the enemy..."
Wei Chan shuddered, "Could it be that Prince Yan really wants to use us to deal with business?"
Both Wei Chan and Xiao Yu became nervous, if it was someone else, it would be fine, but the person who issued the military order this time was Yan Chi, and they felt more fear than respect for this young commander of the Shuoxi Army, and this time involved the diplomatic relations of the three countries, Yan Chi already had the title of Demon King, and now that the situation is like this, it's only normal to find two insignificant and reasonable people to deal with!
Xu Chang understands this possibility best, and has an unprecedented seriousness on his face, "If it is really investigated, I will not be afraid, if I am afraid, I will be afraid. Prince Yan has already prepared all the evidence, and only waits for the time to arrest him."
…
…
The night was as cold as water. When Qin Wan came out of the big tent again, she found that the guard at the door was no longer Xu Chang. She didn't think about it for a while, and just took Bai Ying outside to the pharmacy, "Did you tell His Highness?"
Bai Ying nodded, "Yes, I've said everything, Your Highness said he has arrangements, so you can rest assured."
Qin Wan nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. There is only one day left. I am afraid that the hearts of many Dazhou people are hanging. This is not an ordinary case. Both Xiliang and Northern Wei have troubles. blame.
After the last incident, the number of guards near the pharmacy has increased a lot. When Qin Wan arrived at the pharmacy, two drug boys were still making medicine. Seeing Qin Wan coming, he hurriedly saluted. Thinking of what Xu Chang said, Qin Wan asked, "You guys Has the ointment made for Deputy Captain Xu been delivered?"
Hearing the words, the drug boy who was in charge hurried forward and said, "I sent it, but it was for another warrior named Zhang, who was injured just like Deputy Captain Xu." Said the drug boy in a low voice, " I heard it was a fight."
This matter is no longer a secret, Qin Wan sighed, "Yes, that person broke the rules by drinking."
The medicine boy nodded, "The samurai Zhang also said that in the past, Deputy Lieutenant Xu would not have hit so hard. I don't know what happened that night. If he hadn't hit hard, he wouldn't have dared to fight back..."
Qin Wan frowned as he listened.
